I now have a centos-8 machine, I successfully built midas and I confirm that there is a problem.

But I get different errors from you:

- google chrome - does not connect at all (without any useful error message: "This site can’t be reached. The 
connection was reset.")
- firefox complains about the self-signed certificate, but connects ok, I see the midas status page and it works. "page 
info" reports connection is TLS 1.3, encryption TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256. However, the function "view certificate" 
does not work (without any useful error message).

I tried to run the SSLlabs tool to get some more information from mhttpd, but it does not want to run against mhttpd on 
port 8443... I do have a port redirect program somewhere... need to find it...

K.O.
